i dont get this game sometimes
i close range face sprayed someone and it said i only hit him twice
his body was right in the middle of my screen
lol my guns wouldnt shoot a second ago
me and the guy were so close to each other
but if i uninstall game does it get rid of my stash loot?
Or dsnc
his body was occupying half my sccreen
No
Noice
Might have been too close then to the point your gun got pushed out of the way. ๐
Killa that's linked to acc
oh god
Also that
gotta re-download it to my ssd because these lootload times are not very cash money
i tapped him mid range then the fight got into shotgun range
guess thats where the 2 hits came from
eh its only my scav character with t45 ammo maybe person had thicc armour?
2 hit 40 damage
How much armor dmg
42
welp
either way that shotgun range fight should have hit him a few times but idk
idk how i missed that close
@junior yacht, if you have a Nvidia card you can turn on highlights to save, re-live and analyze your deaths (and kills.. you know.. if you get those) after each raid.
End up with rollercoasters like https://streamable.com/ecqqw
any tips for jump at the customs blue car as a scav?
guess ill need to practice my iron sight aim in offline mode
potato, sounds like you were close enough to point fire
Fuck irons
lots of the rifles are sighted for 100m on irons so you shoot high at close range p sure
It's not really hip fire, but yeah.
hello
is there a container to store rigs
do you need strength to jump the blue car bathroom jump in customs?
@restive ruin items case and thicc items case will take pretty much everything
don't think so @thick needle, just jump later than you think you need to
bruh how do i change where the game installs at, it keeps making it download on my main drive but i dont want it there
you dont even need to sprint to make the jump
Workbench locked? How can I build it? I am lv.13
I tried as a scav but couldn't do it. I'll tried not sprinting'
nvm i figure it out
do it with pistol in hand for jumping better
how about a knife?
If you have keys in your docs case in your pouch do you automatically use it on doors or you have to take them out ?
dont need to take em out
Nice thx boyz
@stuck matrix thanks a lot for the tips
@junior yacht you will get better
You will get that lv 5 and watch as people unload mag upon mag into you
DOES ANYONE KNOW HOW TO UNLOCK THE WORKBENCH IN HIDEOUT?
And laugh
You need 2 bolts 2 scraps and the multitool i think
@rancid iris you can look at the wiki and it will tell you all the requirements for everything in the hideout
Potato im lv 8 too man
@hearty crest No it doesnt
as if I didnt try that 
Dude it says "LOCKED" meaning NOT ABLE TO CONSTRUCT
Its not
You are a 4head
Do you have all the parts ?
screenshot the locked for us @rancid iris
He doesnt have the parts im dying.
im fuckin dead ok @fresh umbra was right - why didnt it say locked for ANYTHING besides that tho?
This game is complicated as fuck - well at least im a millionaire 
lol its ok
thanks anyway
Its ok
Hi, anyone wanna do a run on EU. Feels the LFG channel are for more experienced dudes and dudettes
im just so bad with some of the stuff
Its ok man buy a docs case is the first tip I would give anyone
I've just got the game, did a scav run
One of the best items to get early

USEC is gay #teambear

i find that firing an ak in short bursts messes up my aim a bit idk why?
my reticle kept bounching up
ahh ok
the reticle bouncing up kinda fucks with my crosshair placement
i kept thinking i have to aim lower to fire
BS BP or BT 5.45x39 plz ?
different handguard + foregrip would help you out
yeah you should never really take a 10 round ak into a raid lol
Ah ok
Just buy a makarov and put a drum mag on it
Raid resort on shoreline with a good backpack and ez loot
oh ok thanks
and you might already know, but toz are the shitty little shotguns that scavs snipe you with from 100 yards away
im pretty sure its the Toz
yeah it is
yea
yeah so 4 of those shitty little things
can i just buy this 3m armor?
you can
yeah, but the prices on it are crazy cause people know the new players need it
yeah its something dumb like 40k
you can find it on scavs pretty regularly i believe
Yeah
i got 3 of mine from scavs
i know theres a spot under the stairs on the first floor of 3 story dorms on customs
Two spawns of factory as well
and i caved in and bought the last one
seems its not a guaranteed spawn and dorms is a tough place to go, but i've seen it there a lot for some reason.
Not exactly
and then a thicc boi with thermals came along ๐
Some has flashlights
you could also just camp the flea market for someone pricing at something halfway reasonable
not everybody is price fixing them, but they get bought out kinda quick
I'm sure there are macro scripts for those damn white armours
Thicc boys are everywhere
Yeap
yea
thats a feels bad
scripts everywhere its so lame
Not exactly
Especially fucking flea market
bruh keycards
Instant buy
someone was selling em for 10k
thankfully i started playing a couple weeks before the influx of NEW new players, so i got to buy them on the cheap
and it gets instantly sniped despite me spamming lmb and y
Can kinda take advantage of it to make money yourself by selling at their buyout value
Which is pretty easy to figure out
So light bulbs can be sold for like 17k a pop lol
oof
theres literally like a hundred lightbulbs on interchange at any given time though
found a random paracord on a level 2 feelsbad
really easy to snag them up there
any tips when im going for scav run?
So that's why you can get rich fast on interchange
You can get rich on any map tbh
well graphics cards also spawn on interchange, which sell for like 250-300k
Depends a lot of luck on some
is it just me or woods look the same everywhere
guys a scav just started shooting at me (a scav, too) for no reason after we were really close for like 15 secs.... is this how scav aggro should work?
graphics
gpu is much more than a cpu
i sold a cpu for 10k yesterday
why is nobody playing interchange at night? as i see at the most of the content creators
@lavish wraith was probably a scav player, worked out you were one to
It could be a player pretending to be a scav
People are scared off night raids
@fast rivet i dont think so.... it moved like AI and did some taunts too
interchange at night is easier than day, and you dont even need nvg's lol
damm
Exactly!
i have a harder time seeing on interchange in the day than i do at night
cause the lighting in this game is so whack
Yeap.
i literally can't play it on the noon time slot cause when i spawn outside
my screen is just fucking burning my eyes
i dont even have high gamma or anything like that either
it just blinds me 
Or via your GPU's settings
i just avoid that timeslot, its literally the only map that gives me issues outside
like i said, night raids lol
get out of the basement for once in your life then you will become immune to being blinded
jokes on you, we dont have basements here
@worn bane completely new?
don't have them here either
Server is acting up currently ๐ฆ
Hi guys
hey i had a look at some tarkov videos it seems that some players' reticle doesnt bounce up that much as mine does?
Head bobbing settings in options ๐
is it directly related to my guy's recoil control skill and how low recoil the gun has?
everyones gone for dinner maybe?
What did you queue for?
i was able to find asia matches most of the time and im in australia
korean and japan
The server was having issues
put all asia servers up i think
but I never wait that long for a match
theres also hong kong and singapore servers
sydney dead too
Autoselect server is a good option
What did you queue for? Not the server but what mode and map
i think a lot of people are trying to queue australia servers atm
theres only 1 OCE server
customs scav
Thats odd, Im pretty sure it was just server hiccup
my quests werent accepting items to turn in
hideout was lagging
also i realised that muzzle flash gets in the way of my spray sometimes, do i get a flash hider or something?
Is there an FPS counter in game guys ?
thanks
@worn bane what did you queue for
scav or pmc
because scav usually takes longer on asia servers for me
usually connects me to either JP or SG
avg wait time for Tokyo is the lowest out of my 4 choices
Usually less than 4 mins
scav can take up to 7
i have matches within 1min
idk
just re-queue
waiting longer than 10min is pointless
no clue about korea/japan
no?
I am in queue for jp
in match in 2 mins
na takes me 5-10 mins depending
Found a terragroup labs keycard but I'm still very noob. Keep it and go for the run or sell?
I would sell if you are low level and dont have keys
That's what I was thinking, thanks
otherwise it's gonna sit in my stash for weeks probably
Yeah
@worn bane try queuing again
I just got into factory pmc in less than 2 mins
The road to level 5 is steep
@compact bramble focus your tasks.. It flies by
@mint hawk yep working on it ๐
can a moderator get this pinned?

It was just having issues earlier
@fast rivet thanks !
Everyone was having issues lol, I couldnt load my profile
does vpn work to select servers outside ping requirement?
aus wait times are far too long
I dont think you need vpn?
i can only select aus/singapore as everything else is over 150 ping
but there's quite a lot of Aus streamers
I know for a fact it locks you in asia servers but I cant confirm outside of it
thats not why he went eu
that was a joke lol
hes backpacking over there iirc
all servers have never ending matching issues
and it's not because of the low amount of players
it's actually the opposite.
^
this problem is recent ever since black friday & twitch drops
before that there were never this amount of matching issues
yea we just cant get a match under 15 mins on any map
"Hello!
I said it on the last TarkovTV live podcast but I will say it again.
The game is gaining popularity really fast and I (personally) don't like how it's goings so fast, cause it requires a lot of attention in terms of game stability, server availability and so on. It also requires part of the team is working 24/7 and on the weekends, which is not cool at all. But this are the Rules of the Game and we totally understand everything.
We add new game servers like constantly every day as well as player load rises everyday. And yes - it's not related to content production at all. It just require some time. We added 5 new servers today, 4 yesterday, dozens are planned to be added in the nearest time. Also we are working hot on live environment, upgrading servers on the go and it's a pretty risky process.
Also with such HIGH load some server hardware just fails! It is pure stress test of hardware and our minds :)
So, backend and gameservers are the number one priority of backend and admin team.
Thank you for understanding!
P.S. In the rush hours try not to use custom picked servers. Use "auto" instead."
if only auto made a difference lol, it still chooses between the 2 overloaded servers
i feel like some people do stuff that looked like walls
i got shot through a whole bunch of bushes one shot
and i was walking
@junior yacht thermals brother.. Bushes don't mean much when you're body is warm
thermal in daylight?
@junior yacht thermals aren't effected by light
If i sell my betacase then buy a better game edition. Do i get the case back, get a better one or do i lose the chance of getting one?
you get new case through in game message
I had the standard first then bought a better one. I didnt get the better case through the message thing it was already in my stash and the older one was just gone.
@spare cairn unless you go eod, you won't recieve a new case
I was going to get it
Another question was. When i join a match is it like a server i join in on and others can join to. Or is it a match like a cod game where everyone starts at the same time
People join at around the same time
can be a few minutes difference
but scav players can spawn whenever
man, I am having such a hard time making money in this game
i hear ya
who the hell is this guy ? shturman is dead but this one is not attacking me
are you a scav?
Is this where a noob like me can get good
you can get only by playing
-_-
survive till level 15 or so, and you passed
years of academy training
WASTED
honestly id just love to learn the exits if nothing
@bold kernel you cant learn exits if you dont play, but there are plenty of maps for reference. https://escapefromtarkov.gamepedia.com/Map_of_Tarkov
@limpid pendant bosses always shoot you, his goons attack you too.
this one was Shturman bodyguard
maybe he ceased being one when he got killed
and plz dont tell me to read the wiki
-.-
frag him > loot him > extract :D
just had problems finding the specific extract zone
ok so flea market is the way to go to make good money, holy crap
I put two items up and I get like 40k
rocks and another. .
if zone has gray ??? signs on it - it's a chance zone
@fiery fractal depends on the item sometimes you get more from therapist or skier
if it's active it's indicated by lights, flares or smokes
I checked the items through the market and them. Way more on flea market
ever got the bug where you zoom on your map and it whites out? : /
sometimes by special condtion, like you can extract only if you have some item, or friend, or something
rope etc yeah
@fiery fractal most of the time yes but like said not always
ahh gotcha
how do you attach red dots by chance. I'm sick of iron sights man. Can't see anything 90% of the time
depends on weapon that you want to attach red dot to
vpo-136?
For ak's you need special dust cover
sometimes you need the specific rail to stick it on
buy this then
@fiery fractal
Items to buy from fleamarket and to sell to vendors:
(i put the items on my wishlist (screenshot) so that i can just go through them quickly between raids to make some extra money)
THERAPIST
-GPHONE = 14.011
-GP Coin = 26.850
-DVD = 6.221
-HANDDRILL = 45.000
-SILICONE TUBE = 14.175
-HORSE FIGURINE = 8.586
-GOLD CHAIN = 28.632
SKIER
-TRITON = 19.074
-SCOUTSNIPER = 14.353
-MK3 RIG = 29.131
i posted this days ago
@fiery fractal use tactical tula
you can buy these items cheap in fm and sell them more expensive to traders
but fm prices vary
@mossy meadow yea, use it if you want to be bankrupt in no time
or do you mean tt01
cause 10000 goes for 120k
it good option when you only need red dots and such, if you want scopes they wont fit
3 lowered masks to prapor for akm but dunno ll1 or ll2
i mean it gives pk-06 mount or can serve as a sight itself
if you want scope - pso's are cheap and in stock.
you cant mount pso on vpo 136
if you want scope, you kinda want hunter
Items I pick up as a scav, say the mp 144 shotgun, for the first quest, canb e handed in? Or do I need to run my pmc to get those quest items? Thanks!
you can just buy them
yep, you can
Healing yourself out of raid count toward leveling your skills?
slowly getting to lvl 5, so I can have a look on the fleam
there some quest items that wont spawn for scavs through
do i need rings to put this reflex on? Or are rings only used for like sniper scopes?
@vernal halo I believe it does
well not reflex
@fiery fractal only scopes
it's a romeo 4
then you need a dust cover
slide or rail?
@tepid ingot 90% of quest you need to complete as a pmc, unless it's just a hand over of some item you may buy
@mossy meadow thanks, i've seen a few videos that talk about langauge - hand over/find/find in raid etc
you can search for common non quest keys as a scav
i'm still getting used to everything, doing alot of scav runs, got my first pmc extract last night. games crazy good, thanks for the help!
Yeah but it's just a red dot with no zoom
same here exia
It won't let me put it on
3 hunters cos my buddies who werent new all died
can prt scr it?
plus tags lol
@tepid ingot for a new player scav runs are a valuable resourse. use offline mode if you wanna just learn map or pathing.
@solemn depot
@fiery fractal you need either the bastion dust cover or the tt-01 iron sight
@mossy meadow ran a few offline raids on customs/shoreline, always have a map up on my 2nd screen. scav runs to build up money now, complete some quests and get to lvl 5.
Yeah I'm 5. I've been using flea market quite a bit actually
@mossy meadow attachments? Just lying around, nice!
I should really do offline myself and learn customs better but honestly I'd rather learn by actually playing the map. Forces me to pay attention when stuff is on the line tbh
@fiery fractal We are all playing to have fun and offline can be boring so i can understand you
exactly, I don't really pay attention that well when there's really no reason to and offline feels like that. I have to be in a very specific mood to do that
hard for me to pay attention sometimes
but, I do need to learn that I AM going to lose stuff. If i don't, I'll continue to play like a scared little kid lmao
stuff on your pmc is already lost, its only a matter of time
I mean you right
and thats true for everyone, even hardcore players
I undertand it
i'm still getting used to that, hugging walls and just looting/fighting around the edges.
But do i like it? no cause i like hoarding stuff like I'll never get it again lmao
That's basically what i do
Factory though, I go ham cause why not right
Haven't run factory yet.
yup, the map can be very confusing, not really too much 'safe loot'
@fiery fractal did you install that romeo on your gun? or is there still something blocking you from doing it?
Hmmm, just died in a super weird manner.
Someone shot my head and suddenly when I'm proning
All of my body part blacked out ๐ฎ

Could have been a shotgun
How to mod guns cool
Upgrade workbench in Hideout (2 screw nuts, 2 bolts, multitool which you can buy from Mechanic). Go to flea and examine every weapon and weapon part. Then you can right click on the weapon and "edit preset" will be able to see everything that will go on the weapon (as long as you took the time to examine flea) even if you don't have the item in stash. Looks like the pic below.
Hey, It takes me 5 mins to load into maps, i have it on my ssd, pls help
guys help me understand
Are the ammo stats found on wiki (https://escapefromtarkov.gamepedia.com/Ballistics) up to date?
I was doing a scav run, I'm about to go to the exit of Custom that I have, its just under 3 minutes from the end but I can do it its near, I'm in dorms, and all of a sudden a player scav comes inside dorms looking for me, I kill him but now its too late
Why would a player scav COME into dorms at less than 3 mins from the end??
Do people just want to lose time?
maybe they had the extraction behind dorms and thought they would just loot dead bodys and un looted rooms and then leave
I often just play scav to fuck around. Maybe he heard you and went in to have some fun?
Scavs cant get the vehicle exit
they dont have the vehicle exit but they have an exit of their own there
Yes you can get the vehicle exit. It's called old road or something
old road gate @plucky reef
but yeah you would be surprised at what gets left on dead body's lol
@sweet compass I mean I'm not suprised I basically doubled my loot while looting 5 mins in dorms
No refill
yeah i found 2 dead body's the other day that had 100k guns and good armor on
Can't you fill em with like smaller fuel containers?
Hey, Beginners - anyone want to join my Sherpling on a Woods Sniping daylight?
one free slot open.
@sand kindle you can do something like this for example
@onyx hollow nope
i would love to but my game is re downloading
I would love to but the only words I understand are woods and sniping
my monitors keep going black playing this game today wtf
not even hitting 70c
and to think I try to stay under 50ยฐc
Aight you still looking Nyar?
Yeah, one free slot still.
hmu
i purchased a new monitor and for some reason in my character inventory everything is slightly blurry but my graphics in raid are perfect with no isse and fixes
How much does ergonomics matter and what does it effect?
new player only a few hours into the game looking for people to play with trying to learn the ropes
@whole skiff Aim Time, amoun of time you can have your gun ADSd
and a couple more things
It sort of feels lighter
it that makes sense
@sullen nymph #pvp-lfg
what are the best meds to take in a run plz ?? Grizly too big lol
Salewa's and IFAK's do a great job for overall healing
Painkillers will also do in a pinch when the legs go out, but don't hesitate to go with morphine/golden star/vaseline once you gain more experience
so sell the 50 bandage's i have lol and get the 5 alu splint and sell the 50 single splints i have
Aye
painkiller, cheese, car kit. cheap meds.
@zenith compass ty @sonic lake ty
Np
The army bandages are worth using, though it's up to you
They're much faster at removing bleeds
is the the pack of 2 ?
Yeah, the green ones with 2 uses
What's the paracord for?
Paracord goes together with the Red Rebel pick (melee weapon) for additional extracts
iirc, Woods and Reserve have ones which require the two
Okay so it gives access to those extract points with those interrogations pounts
Some of them, yeah
Thanks a lot :)
Np
how do you make the pocket shotty for mechanics quest
as soon as i attatch the 610mm barrel its already too long with no stock
Do you get skill points for using items outside of raid? So for example eating food from your stash, using meds from stash or discovering new items from traders/flea market? I can see some small xp popups when doing stuff outside of raids but I'm not sure about skill points.
@limpid pendant https://escapefromtarkov.gamepedia.com/Gunsmith_-_Part_7
These work pretty well as a guide to the gunsmith tasks
I believe this wipe there was one or two guns that did nor work as intended. They are likely fixed by this stage in the wipe though.
Anyone here stream with Streamlabs OBS by chance? I've got a really strange issue with launching EFT where it then crashes the streaming software while it loads up.
is this overkill or ???
yes
ok what to take out
@bold kernel I carry a total of 2 IFAK, 1 ALU SPlint, painkiller, ibuprofen and surv12 kit.
really depends on gear, if im running a light kit i take just an ai bandage and a splint
IFAK and painkiller in pockets, rest in gamma
@celest condor tyvm Sir @limpid pendant tyvm sir
dont expect to use your meds if you dont have decent armor
I rarely go ito my second ifak and with the surv12 kit I could get rid of the ibu profen, but I am old and set in my ways.
what's with the waiting times
Servers loaded
May help to go into launcher and choose the top 10 lowest ping servers.
Can select 3 at most rip
@atomic knoll Why only three? Pings too high?
Pretty much
sounds like you are limited by your ISP, not the game.
@limpid grove 7.62x39mm
You do realize you listed 7.62x39mm twice right? And yes BP is best. PS is acceptable for less cost.
Probably location
And of course you should take best ammo you can afford at all times.
Those are the same...
7.62x39 is the same as 7.62x39mm... The mm is short for millimeters. A unit of measurement.

don't see two columns
There is more than one 7.62 calibre though. There is 7.62x39 and 7.62x51 also a shorter round 7.62x25 I think which is a pistol round.
Not sure what ammo chart you are referencing but the wiki only has 1 group of 7.62x39
Yes
and silly me, I forgot about the 7.62x51mm
cheers
why did i just spawn 20 minutes late into a woods raid?
Woods starts at 35mins now
oh. holy shit. why.
๐คท
you must become speed
I would guess shorter match times, means they can cycle more players through games faster.
yeah
how the servers work are there are only a certain amount
more people that can get in and out means more people being able to play woods
One would think with modern cloud infrastructure, it would be easy to scale up the number of servers they have available
shit takes time
all of these people from christmas and streamers are coming in quick
switching, adding, and upgrafing servers takes real time
Nikita reddit post #eft-announcements
I feel for them. I just hope all the server issues donโt drive away all the new players
I hope they go quick enough.
One of the devs was talking about how they are getting up a server a day or something
that also means stuff like tokyo and other places, not just US and EU
rip i died when i shot someone and it lagged hard
What budget weapon would you guys recomend?
@gloomy karma Those deaths are always hard to swallow, but at least for mw they are rare.
@exotic crane What level are you, what level traders do you have available?
Lvl 13 but lets assume lv 2 traderd
why assume? You have your trader levels right?
My standard advice has always been SKS in the past. It is still a viable gun too.
I mean need level 15
yeah but sadly he was unaware and i had a perfect shot but couldnt follow up cause lag smh :/
One factor to remember is the ammo.
One message removed from a suspended account.
both bad
mosin can also one shot through armor if you grab the best bullets

The AKM series guns are fine as well with 7.62x39 PS is a budget friendly round with acceptable performance.
What's the best map to farm loot i'm low on money and weapons
@feral kraken 9 bzt is quite a lot better... it's still really really bad
it doesn't get through armor
Mosin is great, if you never miss ๐
any gun is great if you dont miss
so go for the toes if they have big helms?
depends on situation
Hmm dont enjoy the reload on the sks mosin is not for me and akm does have an insane kick to it or am i mistaken about that?
most cases not
@gloomy karma collect the items in stashes on shoreline
killing someone through legs takes ages
probs shoot crotch/leg area if they have a face shield
but if you take the extra half second to aim for the headshot you can one tap the,
@exotic crane SKS reload, if you are talkign about the top loading.. You can replace the internal magazine with either 20 or 35 round magazines. The SKS has a decent amount of mods available.
@exotic crane all 7.62 guns do.. Can be modded lower.. Best to single fire at range
The AKM series does have decent amount of recoil, but there are an insane amount of mods you can do to it to reduce recoil. Not all of them are bank breaking either.
7.62x39 isn;t really that big...
Hmm is modding sks for a mag does not require allot of rubles?
So I bought the game on Saturday but haven't really played, what gun should I mostly use
i mean in early game when half the money you spend on a gun is attachments
thats a lot
AKM costs quite a lot to get down to reasonable recoil
@analog depot which ever you feel comfortable with
Oh
i just use the aks i get in raid
dont focus on guns in the very begining, learn the maps and mechanics
Ill give sks another shot
I gotta survive doe
yeah if you know what you are doing on factory you can clear with a pistol
@analog depot
I mean I could just run into a raid with no gear
every gun packs a punch .. but not knowing the map will get you killed a lot
Hi Everyone. Iโm looking someone who is more experienced to do some run today night with me. Iโm fairly new but learning quickly. ๐
But is it me or is the sensitivity very low in tarkov
a guy with just a naked SKS that knows all ins-outs of a map is more scary than a geared guy that is completely new in a map
Like I come from R6 and my dpi is high
somewhere around there
Some of the scopes have messed up sensitivities, especially ones with variable zoom.
But in tarkov it's like I'm at 100dpi
the messed up sins is only in the 1x in variable scopes
yeah because of gear your dpi gets liowered

you can counter this on for example valday or vudu by going canted sight or a mount with a reflex on top
if you have a pistol and no armor you can SPIN
I was naked doe @rocky pike
AKM with a @exotic crane Budget AKM for ~100K rubles.
you dont need crazy dpi anyways
It's not gear, it's a legit bug with the scopes. If your sens is slow with every weapon, just up the sens in the game menu.
Anyone here stream with Streamlabs OBS by chance? I've got a really strange issue with launching EFT where it then crashes the streaming software while it loads up.
My first few solo raids are just gonna be me running naked
AKm I just showed has 92 vertical recoil 192 horizontal. It is very useable semi auto at virtually all ranges, and full auto close range.
im gonna be running a sherpling raid on customs in half hour or so
and ur fine
@celest condor 92 vertical is horrible honestly
even my semi's dont have that high recoil
nto for 100K and a decent round.
my AK-74N is 47 recoil for 100k or less
We are not talking meta guns here, we are talking cheap.
idk ๐
5.45 vs. 7.62, obviously the AKM is going to have more kick.
But like what guns should I be looking at after I get a bit of map knowledge
or prob about 60k-ish for ~55 recoil
Right and good AK-74 ammo is more expensive and you go through a lot more. Meaning less budget friendly.
60K for 55 recoil?!? Would like to see it.
AKM has a lot of recoil to begin with. That's decent for a budget minded build.
hi so ive played thiss game like once or twice and im looking for someone to teach me the game (:
@royal wind you could use BT instead of PS
anyone willing to teach me how to play?
as budget round
Thats not a thing for AKM.
o_O
you were bashing the 5.45 having only expensive bullets
but you can use BT
is what im saying
I never said anything about the 5.45 having expensive bullets.
idk 90+ recoil for an AKM and paying almost 100k on it
is just a no-no
in my book
akm is horrible
I said you cant really compare the recoild of the 5.45 to 7.62 because the AKMs naturally have higher recoil.
AK-74N is 35K to begin with, hell gets to 50 K just adding the PK-06. Leaving only another 10 K in your :build: top add recoil reduction and a mount for the PK-06...
@celest condor Dude
ak-74n is cheaper than AKm
Lol
it's 25k
idk where you buy ur ak-74n but if you pay 35k
ur scammed
prob 20k with barter
The prices I showed is if you go to presets and have that find parts. Yes you can find cheaper.
I mean, you do that build with an AKMS stinky and get it cheaper.
This is such a weird argument
Which also means that AKM could be had for much less... But that gives a level field for finding parts and comparing prices.
Stinky's just trying to provide a budget minded AKM build and Veyx is trying to argue by saying there's better guns.
Hell I would do thast build with a VPO-136...
Well no shit there's better guns.
for the price. 100% yes. The overall opinion amongst more experienced players is that AKM is shit for what you pay. if someone really loves the AKM he should use it
but since this is beginner assistance, i'd advice aaginst it
you seem really dead-set on AKM with no room for discussing how good/bad it is.
so keep using it
who am I to tell you otherwise.
I'm just pointing out there's better options for the price.
and if you wanna stick with 7.62 I recommend vepr km
3 times as cheap
What is a goood gun is very opinionated. Last wipe I was much bigger into the AK-74s. but with the 60 round mag nerf this wipe I have been going back to the AKM series.
it's just not auto, but with AKM you don't auto fire 99% of the time
hey i just bought the game and its installing right now
Cool ๐
if my computer cant run it do i get refund
nope
And the AKMs I have fully modded you can definately to do full auto out to medium ranges without issues. Sure it is not a laser like my M4s. And I prefer my extremely low recoild M1 and SA-58s more. But that is a different discussion.
no lol
AKM is actually really good... 7.62 BP is cheaper than BS, and you pay the same amount of mods for it as a decent AK74.
if you get the AKM recoil down to 80 its pretty controllable
since lower fire rate
no?
@plush compass they give you the specs to run it mate
they dont release on steam cause they dont wanna
@plush compass you also realize steam takes 30% cut right?
^^^
My good AKM is 65V/136H.... But I would not call it budget friendly....
its better off steam tbh
idk what just happened but all a sudden both my legs blacked out from fractures then my stomach then i died
was that a bug or a hacker
difference between BP and BS at max is 200 each. if you risk let's say 90 bullets (3 30 mags) = 18k
couldve been an invisible scav?
@gloomy karma Hydration, energy?
i was just walking around then all a sudden both my legs broke and my stomach
a lot easier to control than a maxed aksu ๐๐
Oh certainly there is better you can do to build that AKM. That was my 30 second budget build without comparing things.
I love my little AKS-74Us this wipe...
I just enjoy a larger variety of guns, but tend to steer clear of the meta super guns....
well according to you lot AKM seems pretty meta. kek
invisible scav? well it just said kia and it didnt tell me who killed me
shoreline
could be silent mines
sounds like mines
theres a minefield near ccp temporary extract thing
@stone surge AKM is far from meta. They are pretty bad compared to a fully modded M4, or even a fully modded AK-74M...
I was joking.
AKM is meta tho
But that is a different discussion. The question was budget.
mine field but nothing blew up
silent mines
100 recoil automatic gun is just not good in my book
bug
Hell you even proved my point with your ammo comparison...
recoil acts different with different rate of fire and guns
but yea, I only use nato and .308 ๐
silent mines -.-
so yea
can I safely turn off my generator after I started crafting?
absolutely Veyx... But some people want auto ability as well.
the deadliest people around
its still counting down
AK-74M? I prefer the N
Yes Fred, but it makes the craft take longer.
Yeah
this game is in beta tho and theyre getting way to many players to keep up with, im not suprised theres silent mines
Pigeons, the timer looks the same with generator on and off
when will it add extra time?
VBut that is why I suggested the AKM family.. To me that includes the VPO-136, AK-103 and AK-104. but not that nasty AKMS, that thing blows ๐
What are you crafting?
AK-74N is the only AK i keep returning to for some runs
sec
bruh its literally the same build except for the comp to take a 74n down to 47 as an akm to 60
I dont think the workbench or lavatory uses the generator.
@sonic lake AKM will cost a lot more.
had to enable the generator to start crafting
if you actually do the math
then disabled it and its working so far ๐
Well if it needs the generator to craft youll see the time extend right away.
If it doesnt, then you're good.
@atomic knoll VSS is a fun gun, and a great gun. Costs a lot to feed it though.
... zhukov, cmrd, rk1 ... onlything changes is the compensator
it's Free
not to mention BP is like 300rub cheaper than BS
and AKM base price is like double
Herein lays a problem with gun modding. When you start building a gun you always want to go just a little bit better. Pretty soon your "budget" gun turns into a 250K laser...
It is fun though.
You can get an AKMS for 20k. Just saying. Only downside is you cant mod the stock but default is -41%
whats the best scope for using an svd
Some body had a bad time xD
sitting on dome on reserve
3.+
@atomic knoll VSS and AS VAL. They have very low recoil and very high rate of fire. Shooting them is more like shooting an SMG. You tend to shoot a lot of bullets. but the ammo for the VSS is more than a 9mm, typically.
hell you could ironsight from dome lmao
haha ikr but we are practicing so wanna get good with a scope
valday is consistent
new to tarkov never played looking for a sherpa
@prime shale what mods you goin with on the SVD? For limited mods PSO will work fine. But for a bit more you can add the SVD low mount and anything you want. My SVDs have the SAG chassis so I can use a TAC-30 on plain rings, and an MPR45 with a spacer and micro t-1 back up sight.
#sherpa-info @mint pier
I find sights, and any optics to be very personal opinion though. So you really need to mess around with it.
supressor on SVD, yes...
what do i need ta do foir thatr cant seem to find the option on my work bench
linked search the muzzle brake
Need rotor 43 threaded adaptor for the SVD to mount a suppressor.
what is the more noob friendly map there?
@static carbon well you need to learn customs for tasks, and Interchange is great to learn and scav on
factory is NOT a noob friendly map...
Factory isnโt anymore
factory is terrible advice
i tried woods a few runs i always end with a bullet in the head
Try customs
kk, ty
@wet spade I have seen killa moving around without him "seeing" me.
I suggest interchange to new players. Easy enough to avoid fights, lots of loto without needing keys. easy to find exits.
@static carbon Go to #521628660298678283 and #news-setup to unlock discord and be able to use #pvp-lfg. If you get a blue name you did it right. If for some reason it doesnt work, message the Contact Moderators bot for acess.
Interchange can be very intimidating
@wet spade Normally when I find Killa still, he is crouching and alert because he saw or heard someone..
If a new player just roams near kiba without realizing it is a very quick death most likely
I agree interchange can be intimidating scary and confusing
How much does a gpu cost? I just found one.
250k
275k
Anywhere from 250-290k
Holy sheet balls, I already escaped. That's awesome money, level 3 now.
When I teach new players I start on interchange, I stick to garage though. Then as they get more comfortable move up to tech stores and OLI. Eventually moving to fully roaming the mall.
It is much easier to learn with a guide though.
Got this stuff.
Hatchet?
lol, I've still never found a gpu in raid. I'm level 39.
Just run shoreline and interchange
I was playing on interchange, hit the two tech stores and just run. Yeah.
Not that rare
Found 3 in one raid over weekend
My friend found 2 ledx and red keycard on shoreline
I know the're not. I've just still never come across one. But I havent been targeting tech shops early on in raids.
That was what we call an amazing run
......
@celest condor what spacer do you use i bought the amss but wont let me mount iot
but can mount the mpr45
So if you spawn into a raid at 14 mins - Why does one get a run through when extracting with 10 seconds left on the timer
wtf
Last night I found a graphics card in techlight with 15 minutes left in raid. Then found a tetriz with less than 5 minutes left in the office at IDEA.
If you do a scav run and instantly dip do you keep the free weapons you got or no
run through happen if you get less than 300 XP not time related
Yeah, it means you didnt loot much or kill anybody basically.
Well i looted a bronze lion and a couple of wires
@prime shale My SVD build.
Also spawned with a vss soooo
@atomic knoll Sounds like a good raid then. Lions are still worth some $$$
Eh, doesnt matter that much for scav.
Gear fear sucks
Scav XP does not carry over to PMC
EXP earned as a scav doesnt transfer to your PMC anyways.
Actually the game tracks scav XP and skills. Yo can access your scav stats in game.
sorry I mean in raid.
It doesn't?
run throughs dont really matter fir pmc either
better than dying and having to rebuy a kit
I think eventually scavs will have their own level track.
@jagged valve Looking at losing gear all wrong.. When yo lose gear it is an opportunity to try new gear and gives you space in stash to find new things ๐
They do
That little case you get you keep it right if ya die
Right now they're just free loot runs.
@analog depot If by little case you mean alpha container, yes
Yes
they already do have a seperate leveling
i agree but i was saving my decked out ak for a good run then get clapped in 5 minutes
lmao that happens
Alpha container is an important part of the game mechanics. Anything you have in your secure container is safe. As in ifyou die yo do not lose it and it can not be looted from your body
amsh*
Now 2nd question, with a scav run if you extract instantly do you keep the weapons or not
yes
Yes
AMM is the aimpoint mount, the AMSH is the spacer. One sec
Like the weapon you get for free
yes
Everything you extract with you get
So it's just free loot?
yes
So if you get a lab keycard book it to extract
So if I want to find killa
Time for me to do scav runs and instantly extract after spawning
I have to search stores as well?
I found that just putting a PK-06 on the MPR 45 tucked it in too close to the scope, so a spacer works great, but you need the aimpoint mount, and you are limited to either the Micro t-1 or romeo 4 sight. Both of which are decent.
Yes, he hides in stores.
@wet spade he likes to hide in addik, general, brutal, and mantis
@celest condor yeah but what do i type in flea to get it up as amm and amsh doesnt come up
aimpoint... That will get you the short list.
actually that will get you everything you need for that set up
well minus the MPR-45
@prime shale there do not show up as those titles.
@harsh ibex gj!
@harsh ibex congrats mate
The mount is "Aimpoint mount for the sights of micro series"
Spacer is "Aimpoint micro spacer high"
the sight is "aimpoint micro t-1 reflex sight"
whats the best decently priced keys to buy for resort? i currently have 222E, 218W,205W, 206E, and office 108E
To be honest, if the key has anything worthwhile behind it, it probably wont be decently priced.
Why would I get a "run through" if I was in raid for a full 40 minutes and killed a PMC?
@autumn rivet sometimes it bugs, but it's all about how much xp you made in the match
@royal wind okay, any suggestions on which ones to buy anyways, i have a good budget to spend
Or it could be showing you the after action report from a previous raid.
@hard perch why resort though?
why not
I dont have all the keys memorized Zak, there's so many. Look it up on the wiki.
dang... I could have used the XP bonus, I got like 940 despite it being a run through
I don't attribute "budget" and "resort" in the same thought
okay.
If you killed a PMC and looted him, I dont think you would've gotten a run through. It was probably showing you the previous raid.
